A polarized plug has one rounded prong and one straight prong. The rounded end goes into the longest socket slot.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a polarized plug
(one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fit, contact qualified personnel to install the proper outlet.
Do not alter the plug in any way.

Operating Instructions
This new ORECK Upright is one of the finest, fastest, and strongest units in its class. You’ll love the way it cleans, gets under things, and it’s SO lightweight and easy to use.
The following are a few simple suggestions regarding its operation:
1.When inserting a new disposable HEPA inner bag -FIRST PUFF OUT and OPEN THE BAG.
2.When the disposable HEPA inner bag is full, REPLACE IT.
3.If at any time the machine does not pick up properly or makes an unusual noise, STOP OPERATION and service.
4.Although your upright will pick up pins, paper clips, and other small objects, it is recommended that these be removed from the floor before you vacuum. Failure to do so may result in permanent damage to the motor suction fan and its housing.
5.WARNING: Do not use your vacuum cleaner on damp or wet surfaces. This will cause damage to the vacuum cleaner and is dangerous to the user. Damage caused by use on wet or damp surfaces is not covered under warranty.
6.For optimal performance, replace the belt every 6 months.
7.Check the disposable Odor Fighting HEPA Inner bag at least once a month.
8.DO NOT run the vacuum cleaner over the cord. The revolving brush could damage the cord.
9.Use caution when vacuuming over area rug edges and fringe.

General
Information
E N G L I S H
The performance of your new cleaner greatly depends upon care and maintenance. The instructions in this manual will guide you in performing basic care and maintenance. To obtain the most satisfying years of service read the instructions and keep them handy for future reference.
PULL
Odor Fighting HEPA Inner Bags
Your Oreck includes an Odor Fighting HEPA Inner Bag. The disposable inner bag plays a very important role in the efficiency of your ORECK vacuum. The purpose of the disposable inner bag is to trap dirt, but at the same time it must be porous enough to allow air to pass through.
If the disposable inner bag becomes clogged, no air can pass through the vacuum and cleaning cannot take place, regardless of the vacuum’s power.
To keep your Upright vacuum operating at maximum efficiency, change the disposable inner bag frequently.
DO NOT FILL ABOVE THE LINE INDICATED ON THE DISPOSABLE INNER BAG.
Be sure the disposable inner bag is installed properly. Note: All disposable inner bags are not the same. Oreck offers HEPA and non-HEPA inner bags. Your Oreck HEPA or non-HEPA inner bags have been designed to be used with the ORECK Upright vacuum. Using bags other than genuine Oreck HEPA or non-HEPA disposable inner bags will affect the cleaning ability of your vacuum and could cause damage to it.
360º Glide
Your new Oreck Upright features the 360º Glide turning system. The 360º Glide offers an entirely new level of maneuverability to your lightweight Oreck Upright. No
installation necessary. Simply turn the handle of your Oreck Upright to maneuver the unit. Go left, Go right, make sharp turns under and around furniture.
The Belt
The belt on your vacuum cleaner controls the speed of the revolving brush and is very important for the effective operation of the cleaner. If the belt becomes stretched or cut, it will cause the revolving brush to stop completely or slow down. See instructions in the manual for replacing belt.
Lubrication
The vacuum cleaner motor bearings are factory lubricated and sealed.
Further lubrication is not required.
CAUTION
Wood Floors, Soft (Vinyl, Asphalt Tile, etc.) Floor Surfaces and Polished Floor Finishes
Use floor and floor finish manufacturer’s recommended methods of cleaning. The roller brush may also scuff very soft finishes. Do not operate the unit while in the upright and locked position. Do not let the unit run while in any one stationary position for any period of time. Keep the unit moving while in operation.
Note: At least once a month, check for and remove excessive lint, string or hair from revolving brush. Patented cleaning grooves on brush roll will allow easier cleaning. Wipe the outside of the cleaner with a damp cloth. Also clean the connector deflector assembly area, base of cleaner and fan housing area. If there is dust in the outer bag, vacuum it or shake it out.
A little preventative maintenance will keep your cleaner looking new and will ensure continued cleaning effectiveness.

Replacing Edge Brush
WARNING: Unplug cord from electrical outlet before servicing.
22 Turn the power head over. With baseplate facing up, remove the screw located in the center of each edge brush. Remove both edge brushes and replace with new ones. Replace both screws and tighten.
Replacing the LED Light
The light assembly should be replaced by an Oreck authorized service center whenever it fails to light during operation.
Stuffing or Blockage |
22 |
|
IMPORTANT: On plush and new carpets, stuffing may occur inside the intake tube and the lower tube assembly. This is due to excessive fuzz and loose cuttings in the carpet. Stuffing could occur for the first few cleanings until all the loose material is removed. Due to the high efficiency of the cleaner, many older carpets will cause stuffing when the cleaner is first used on them. If your vacuum cleaner does not pick up properly, or makes unusual noise and the outer bag does not fluff up or balloon open, follow these steps:
WARNING: Unplug cord from electrical outlet before servicing.
23Check for blockage at the mouth of the intake opening. If there is blockage, remove it with long-nose pliers,
a screwdriver or coat hanger. If you can not reach the blockage, remove baseplate. Remove the base plate by removing 5 screws
(see “Replacing Brushroll”).
24If the blockage is not at the base, remove lower tube. Unhook bag spring, releasing bottom of bag.
25Twist lower collar counterclockwise to slide up. Pull tube out of base. Check for blockage. If blockage is in the tube, remove with a coat hanger.
26If tube is not blocked, look into fan housing. Remove debris with long-nose pliers, a screwdriver or coat hanger.
27To reassemble, check O-ring on tube, and replace if damaged. Replace tube by first lining up slot at base of tube with tab inside fan housing.
28Insert tube and push down until the tube is seated. Make sure O-ring is in place against fan housing opening. Replace and tighten collar until collar locking tabs are locked in place. Reattach bag spring.
29Many times blockage occurs due to a full HEPA Inner bag causing dirt to back down the air flow system. When that
happens, the blockage will be at the top of the system, starting in the area where the HEPA Inner bag connects to the connector assembly.
Note: If the above actions do not correct the problem, contact an Oreck authorized service center or call the customer service center. US: 1-800-989-3535 Canada: 1-888-676-7325
